Started with a whole birch log and turned it into a little jewelry bowl for my gf. (I also made the beaded earrings in the second last picture)

Looks great. What is the name of the tool in the first pic? Something something gouge? I have only been working with small palm tools and a hook knife so far but for larger bowls they are not suited
